    Internal Audit

    BRON brings the required skills, experience and capacity to outsourcing clients’ internal audit function. Internal audit is a core resource in the governance process, and we draw on our firm-wide specialist skills to bring a comprehensive solution to our clients, as well as providing independent assurance on critical business processes.

    Full outsourcing includes the performance of all internal audit activities – including risk assessment, audit planning, performance, communication/ reporting – on a recurring basis. The client may have or may choose not to have a chief audit manager.

    Co-sourcing is when we assist with in-house internal audit functions in the execution of their internal audit plans.

    Quality Assessment Reviews: in our quality assessment process, we perform a comprehensive review of the overall effectiveness of a client’s internal audit function. This would typically include:

    • Compliance with professional standards;
    • The effectiveness and efficiency of function activities;
    • Organisation, resource and skill capabilities;
    • Evaluation of stakeholder needs and fulfilment of those needs; and
    • Identification of strengths and improvement opportunities that strategically position the internal audit function for on-going success.

    Our independent review services include:

    • Limited assurance, e.g. for banks, creditors, investors and potential purchasers
    • Review of annual financial statements (AFS)
    • Compilations, e.g. AFS in accordance with IFRS and IFRS for SMEs
    • Assurance in the form of independent reviews of financial statements in accordance with ISRE 2400 and the Companies Act.

    To facilitate reporting on strict and tight deadlines or financial closing for our clients, we also perform reviews of Interim Financial information
